Of course it will. Then once they have all the trans people rounded up they’ll target the gays, then the blacks, the mexicans, and so on and so forth until everyone’s in camps that isn’t white.

Republican supporters won’t wake up to this until they start coming after the stupid and obese.

You’re not safe even if you’re white. If nothing else they’ll target people who like the color blue just to keep some “enemy” in their sights.

White people are just further down the list of easy targets. At that point they’ll start by hair color and nitpick their way down from there.

Working backwards, we could reasonably expect Italian, Irish, and Polish people. Discrimination really isn’t about the color of your skin if history is anything to go off of.

Fascism requires an “other” to function. Once one “other” is a destroyed there will always be another one to take it’s place.

As long as they don’t have any lefty thoughts. Don’t forget that the Nazis also put unionists, socialists and communists in camps.

they’ll never target the stupid, those are the people who will support them no matter what. They’re already trying to demonize intelligence and education.

the bar for what counts as stupid enough will continue to lower, though.

So all straight and cis content should be banned too, right, or is it only “degenerate” (to use the word the nazis used) content that should be influencing them?

(straight cis white man speaking. I don’t have a horse in this race, but I’m sure not going to let people act like they have the moral high ground without them investigating their beliefs themselves.)

Cooll so how exactly will you ban all straight content? You gonna ban stuff like Romeo and Juliet because you’re too lazy to supervise your kid and they might read it?

How are you going to prevent children from being influenced by any/all of the romantic relationships they see in every day life? If movies/books/ect are so bad, then what would be do with real life examples?

First of all, kids will question their gender and sexuality whether you like it or not - internet or no internet. Secondly, the Internet is a safe haven for lgbtq+ kids and taking away those supportive communities is going to be nothing but harmful. What evidence do you have that exposure to lgbtq+ communities “corrupts” children? I’m guessing none because it just doesn’t. Be better.

Yall said the same thing about some of us being gay. Turns out when used all of the same talking points back then, we were still gay. I was influenced to not be gay, because gay people are disgusting pedophiles who worship Satan, and I ended up gay despite not being a pedophile or worshiping Satan.

I’ve always thought that about religious youth programs. How is that not indoctrination of the youth?

It is absolutely indoctrination. My youth group pastor spent many years indoctrinating us college-bound youth against the “world.” Evolution, climate change, premarital sex (“ladies, do you want to be like a used piece of gum?”), abortion (“ladies, abortion will make you kill yourself”), porn (“ladies, watching porn will make you unable to ever have an orgasm”), getting pregnant (“Tina is now going to be shamed in front of all of us, let us listen to her impregnated self tearfully apologize to us for having premarital sex and getting all used up”). Fuckers.

Ooooo totally because I (straight) was totally influenced by my gay uncle and other gay stuff I’ve seen online 🙄

While we’re at it we should get rid of cartoons because kids shouldn’t see stuff like someone slowly falling with an umbrella and trying it in real life since they’re influenced.

Just because someone is exposed to something at a young age doesn’t mean they’ll end up making decisions.

I hardly find the link with trans… same with the argument to “then ban straight content too”. Gay guy doesn’t pretend to be an anime girl .

trans is about mental disorder, dissociation between mind, body and frustration.

Yall also said the same thing about gay people. It was considered a mental disorder. All of these talking points are recycled, but then just slightly altered to fit trans people instead.

If you grew up without anything influencing you, you’re either an inanimate object or a cat (those bastards don’t give a fuck)

Good luck not being influenced by your surroundings. If you feel you haven’t, you’re blind

Listen to the facist sing

"Take hope here

War is elsewhere

You were chosen

This is Gods land

Soon we’ll be free

Of blot and mixture

Seeds planted by our Forefathers hand"

A mass of promises

Begin to rupture

Like the pockets Of the new world kings

Like swollen stomachs In Appalachia

Like the priest that fucked you as he whispered holy things

A mass of tears have transform the stones now

Sharpened on suffering

And woven into the slings

Hope lies in the rubble of this rich fortress

Taking today what tomorrow never brings
